Army Public School (APS) Noida is a premier English-medium, co-educational institution established in 1995 under the aegis of the Indian Army through the Army Welfare Education Society (AWES). Located in Sector – 37, adjacent to Subedar Himmat Singh Chowk, the school sprawls across 17.5 verdant acres and serves children of Army personnel as well as civilians from classes I to XII.

Affiliated to the Central Board of Secondary Education, Delhi, APS Noida follows the Continuous and Comprehensive Evaluation (CCE) system up to class X and offers three robust streams – Science, Commerce and Humanities – at the Senior Secondary level. The curriculum is enriched with Oxford International, ASL, Robotics, Financial Literacy and French as a third language. Board results routinely surpass CBSE averages, recording 100 % pass with 35 % students in the last batch scoring 90 % or more in Grade XII. Preparation for NDA, NTSE, JEE and NEET is built into the timetable through dedicated coaching cells and tie-ups with Allen and Resonance.

The campus hosts 132 smart classrooms, six state-of-the-art science laboratories, three IT labs and tech-enabled math, bio-tech and language resource centres. The three-storey Knowledge Resource Centre houses 30,500 volumes, 38 periodicals and a 12-terminal e-library with N-LIST access. Sports infrastructure includes an Olympic-size synthetic athletics track, two soccer fields, basketball, volleyball and tennis courts plus facilities for swimming, shooting range and skating. Twenty-four co-curricular academies run parallel to academics, offering Western & Indian music, dance, theatre, pottery, National Cadet Corps (Army, Air, Navy wings), taekwondo, equestrian, épée fencing and MUN.

The school is staffed by 175 qualified teachers, 36 of them CTET qualified and 45 holding Ph.D./M.Phil. A Counselling & Guidance Cell, staffed by four trained psychologists, delivers life-skills workshops, scholarships and pre-departure orientation for Defence wards. Student teacher ratio is 18:1; digital attendance, annual Appraisal of Teacher Performance (ATP) and Project-Based Learning modules ensure academic rigour.

APS Noida has won accolades such as the International School Award by the British Council (2018-21), Green Campus Certificate (Centre for Science & Environment, 2022) and is the only school in Uttar Pradesh to nurture five successive Youth Parliament State Championship winners. Life follows a distinctly military rhythm through morning assembly signalling, weekly ‘Sher Singh Parade’ in winter uniforms and inter-house competitions named after Param Vir Chakra awardees. Annual events include “Aviram” cultural gala and “Alpha Warriors” sports fest, fostering a robust esprit de corps that alumni from NDA, IMA, IITs, IIMs and medical colleges remember long after graduation.
